One the big thigns about xbox was the hardrive. Itd be foolish to get rid of it, unless they replaced it with somin that did the same but better.

On again, off again...

I wouldn' t be surprised if next-week the news has changed :)

We' ll probably get news stating that Microsoft dumped the hard drive idea in favor of selling external 3.5 inch floppy drives to store game data.

I had a discussion about this at another forum and some suggested that the next Xbox possibly would replace a HD for a built in flash memory drive. So although it wouldn' t be technically a HD it would still have the internal memory. This basically came up from the talk about flash drives being the focus of the next Xbox' s memory. They are normally thought of as removable storage but can be built in.

Yeah, that actually makes a lot of sense. Flash drives are more reliable and can be as big as a hard drive if they are internal. Smart move in my opinion.

More room on the next hard-drive or whatever the memory storage thing they put in xbox 2 would be nice.

Are you saying you used up your Xbox HD?

Whatever they do, I hope they' re not dumb enough to make the harddrive an add-on. That would pretty much ensure that no developers take it into consideration.
